Theory of Nuclear Structure: Trieste Lectures 1969 [antikvár]

FOREWORD The International Centre for Theoretical Physics has maintained an interdisciplinary character in its research and training program so far as different branches of theoretical physics are concerned. In pursuance of this aim the Centre has organized extended research courses with a comprehensive and synoptic coverage in varying disciplines. The first of these — on Plasma Physics — was held in 1964; the second in 1965 was concerned with the physics of particles; the third in 1966 covered nuclear theory; the fourth in 1967 dealt with condensed matter. The proceedings of all these courses were published by the International Atomic Energy Agency. The present volume records the proceedings of the fifth course, held from 7 January to 31 March 1969, which was concerned with the study of microscopic nuclear structure and the many-body approaches to nuclear theory. The program of lectures was organized by Professor G. Alaga of Yugoslavia and Professor L. Fonda of Italy. The course itself and its program were originally conceived by the late Professor J. Sawicki who tragically died in an air crash in September 1968. We all missed his dynamic and passionate involvement with the subject. This book is dedicated to his memory. Abdus Salam
